Konstantinos Varvagiannis gene: ZNF142 was added gene: ZNF142 was added to Intellectual disability. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: ZNF142 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: ZNF142 were set to 31036918 Phenotypes for gene: ZNF142 were set to Global developmental delay; Intellectual disability; Seizures; Tremor; Dystonia Penetrance for gene: ZNF142 were set to unknown Review for gene: ZNF142 was set to GREEN Added comment: Khan et al. (2019 - PMID: 31036918) describe the phenotype of 7 females from 4 families, harboring biallelic likely pathogenic ZNF142 variants. Overlapping features included cognitive impairment (ID in 6/7 from 3 families, borderline intellectual functioning was reported one occasion), speech impairement and motor impairment (7/7), and variably penetrant seizures (5/7), tremor (4/7) and dystonia (3/7). Most individuals (5/7) had experienced at least one episode of seizures (tonic-clonic) though seizures were recurrent in 3 sibs. Other disorders with ID (eg. Angelman syndrome, Rett syndrome, chromosomal disorders) or movement disorders as a feature were previously ruled out for many subjects. 6 individuals were homozygous or compound heterozygous for LoF (stopgain or frameshift) variants. One individual harbored 2 missense SNVs in the compound heterozygous state. Variants reported include (NM_001105537.2): c. 817_818delAA (p.Lys273Glufs*32), c.1292delG (p.Cys431Leufs*11), c.3175C>T (p.Arg1059*), c.4183delC (p.Leu1395*), c.3698G>T (p.Cys1233Phe), c.4498C>T (p.Arg1500Trp) with the LoF variants predicted to result in NMD. Expression or functional studies were not carried out. ZNF142 encodes a C2H2 domain-containing transcription factor. Mutations in other zinc finger proteins (ZNF/zfp) have been reported in several neurodevelopmental disorders impacting the CNS (eg. ZBTB20 and ZBTB11 heterozygous and biallelic mutations, respectively) and/or presenting with movement disorders among their manifestations (eg. YY1). As the authors comment, homozygous ablation of the orthologous (Zfp142) locus in mice results in behavioral and neurological phenotypes [MGI ref.ID: J:211773 cited - http://www.informatics.jax.org/marker/reference/J:211773 (though Zfp142 or its locus do not seem to appear in the list)]. ZNF142 is not - at least commonly - included in gene panels for ID offered by diagnostic laboratories. It is not associated with any phenotype in OMIM, nor in G2P. As a result, this gene can be considered for inclusion in the current panel as probably as green (individuals from 3 families, appropriate degree of ID for the current panel) or amber (if further evidence would be required).

Konstantinos Varvagiannis gene: ZBTB11 was added gene: ZBTB11 was added to Intellectual disability. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: ZBTB11 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: ZBTB11 were set to 29893856; 28382966 Phenotypes for gene: ZBTB11 were set to Intellectual disability Penetrance for gene: ZBTB11 were set to Complete Review for gene: ZBTB11 was set to AMBER Added comment: Fattahi et al. (PMID: 29893856) report on 9 individuals from 2 broader consanguineous pedigrees with biallelic ZBTB11 mutations. Features in the first family (from Iran) consisted of moderate ID, microcephaly, ataxic gait, and spasticity with MRI findings of cerebellar atrophy and ventriculomegaly. Individuals from the second family (from Pakistan) presented with moderate ID and variable features. Homozygosity for missense ZBTB11 variants, private to each family was shown (NM_014415.3:c.2185C>T / p.H729Y and c.2640T>G / p.H880Q for the first and second family respectively). As the authors note, ZBTB11 is predicted to be a zinc finger transcriptional regulator and one of the hypotheses emitted suggests possible disruption of DNA binding. Functional studies performed demonstrated that the mutant proteins were excluded from the nucleolus where the (wt) protein localizes. Previous zebrafish models (PMID: 28382966) suggested CNS degeneration among other phenotypes in Zbtb11 mutants. Knockdown of the drosophila ZBTB11-ortholog (CkIIα-i1) resulted in recognizable shrinking of the mushroom body with significant reduction in the number of neurons compared to controls. Other Zinc Finger and BTB Domain-Containing proteins cause disorders with ID as a prominent feature (eg. ZBTB16, ZBTB20, etc.). ZBTB11 is not associated with any phenotype in OMIM nor in G2P. As a result, this gene can be considered for inclusion in this panel probably as amber (2 pedigrees only) or green (given the supportive functional studies). Sources: Literature |
